The attorneys representing the plaintiff and the defendant are in a father-son relationship. Can the lawsuit be withdrawn? Yes. The plaintiff can negotiate with the defendant's lawyer and reach a mediation agreement or the defendant can perform it on site. The plaintiff can withdraw the lawsuit. When the plaintiff negotiates with the defendant's lawyer, he should ask the defendant's lawyer to produce a power of attorney signed by the defendant to see if the defendant authorizes him to mediate and reconcile. Otherwise, the mediation agreement signed by the defendant's lawyer will not be binding on the defendant.
